Hello All!


This may be a silly question, prepare yourselfs
Now Schottky retifies, ive used two pin recs but never three pins.
Is there two recifiers in one with a common pin?
this recifier has the case type TO-220AB rated at 10A and 45V


So if thats the case and Im using dual bridge per mono Id need a total of 4 per channel

Cheers in advance

Hi Dan
Yes, you are correct in your assumption but beware.
There are both common cathode and common anode types so it's important to know what you've got.
Sometimes the two diode symbols are printed on the case to show what they are connected to.
Do you have a part number?
Cheers

Hello Rob
Looking at going through Mouser
part no. 511-stps2045ct

Hi Dan
That's the common cathode variety.
I've been looking at the Mouser site for a while but can't find the common anode equivalent which would make for easy bridge building. May I suggest a closer-to home alternative?

S16C60A Common anode 60 volts 16 amps AUD$1.85
S16C60C Common cathode 60 volts 16 amps AUD$1.95

This is a Sydney based supplier to the repair trade but you may be able to source them locally.

Hello Rob

Mmm your getting me alittle confused, surely having one of each would be easiest, as one common cathode and one common anode.
Maybe a diagram would explain

Thanks for link will look into it
Cheers!

Hi again Dan
Sorry if I confused you.
One of each type is exactly what I meant.
The numbers are just the two complementary types.
Perhaps this will help.

Thanks Rob

Just been checking out wescomponents, interesting site!

Another sideroad, Ive been trying to track down metal film risistors
0.39R rated at over 3W
any good resistor stockests out there!


Cheers in advance

Hi Dan
I've checked all my usual suppliers and can't find any power resistors under one ohm. Seems unusual. Best I can suggest is using parallel higher values to get what you want.
Cheers
Rob
